John 7:23-24
23 If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath, so that the law of Moses should not be broken, are you angry with Me because I made a man completely well on the Sabbath? 24 Do not judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment.”

Many believe that if you do good in ways that do not fit religious tradition that you are doing wrong. Even in the way we are "supposed to" dress to truly honor God. Jesus for for instance healed on the Jewish Sabbath to do good, but hypocrites tried to say He was evil. In Hebrews 4 we are told to rest (Sabbath) in Him every day, doing His work and not ours. Also, the Scriptures never say Jesus had pomegranates on long pharisaical robes in the synagogue either. So righteous judgment sees the difference between imposed "laws" of religion and God's word cut rightly in love for Him and others.
